What colour to paint my kitchen?

I am getting my kitchen re-tiled in a couple of weeks but can't decide what colour to paint it.The units are light oak and the worktop is mottled in cream, taupe, sage green, grey and black.The wall tiles are going to be cream brick style and the flooring will be black. All my kitchen accessories are cream so I can really have any colour on the walls.Any suggestions? I was thinking about red but not sure if that's a bit passe?

You can always repaint though. And it's easier to go from cream to a brighter colour than to cover up a bright colour

Or get sample pots of a few colours and slap them on the walls and see what you think.

i just think you'll struggle to get a colour that would go well with cream, taupe, green, grey and black. So it'd have to be one of those colours. Grey and black (I hope!) would be out, so that would leave you cream, taupe and green.

This is the picture from the schedule when I bought the house. It doesn't look quite like this now but the units and worktop are the same.So, the wall tiles will be cream and the floor will be black. I have a round table and two bar stools in there that are also black.I wondered about red walls because everything else will be fairly neutral?

I know - I really need to get testers. Am just trying to narrow it down a bit or else I'll end up spending a fortune on every colour under the sun!On another thread about paint colours, someone mentioned this Farrow & Ball paint. I thought it might be somewhere to start as the reviews specifically mention it being somewhere between grey and sage green.

I think that paint looks quite grey and it would need to be a light room not to feel dark.I'm currently leaning towards Dulux willow tree or crown bamboo leaf for our kitchen, cream units, wood floor and worktop, black appliances.

I'd be tempted to pick a colour in your mottled worktop (ie the sage green!) and use that for your walls

Yorky I have Dulux Willow Tree in my hall - it really is a lovely, restful colour. think that's also confusing me because I'm concerned if I use sage green in the kitchen either the hall or the kitchen will look "off" if you know what I mean.
